No Injuries in Crash Between a Semi and Train

Moose Jaw Saskatchewan - The result could have been much worse when a train and a semi carrying flammable liquid crashed east of Moose Jaw this morning.
 
The collision happened just after 9:30 this morning when the semi stopped at the railway crossing on Highway 39 then kept driving into the path of the oncoming train.
 
Fortunately, there was no derailment, no injuries, and no spill of hazardous materials.
 
The driver of the semi faces charges for failing to obey a stop signal at a railway crossing.
 
Moose Jaw RCMP and members of the Canadian Pacific Police Service have already cleared the scene.
